Prince Caspian

Prince Caspian is the titular character of the second movie. He is the Prince of the Telemarines, a human race that has taken over much of Narnia. The movie starts with him being forced to flee because his Uncle Miraz has had a son and the production of an heir places Caspian’s life in jeopardy.

He is tempted by evil multiple times throughout the film but is redeemed or baptized at the end by Aslan. Prince Caspian is also an example of the idea of Christian knighthood.

At the end of the film Caspian becomes King of Narnia and shows he will be ruling a Narnia closer to the Old Narnia, symbolic of the fact that faith is now allowed to flourish under his reign.

It is heavily hinted at that Miraz may have also been responsible for the death of Prince Caspian’s father out of jealousy, infusing Caspian’s lineage with another biblical element as it is very similar to the Old Testament story of Cain and Abel.
